From Rousseau to Modernism: ideas and historical practices of the teaching of drawing

In this article we reflect upon the particular history of the teaching of drawing – we treat the transition from traditional to modern vision, until the arrival of Bauhaus and contemporary look about the issue. Based on the work of thinkers such as Juan Bordes, Elliot Eisner and Ana Mae Barbosa, so we seek to situate and understand the concepts that have been preserved, and they became the ones that were abandoned in the history within the teaching of design. We emphasize the study of the implications of historically constructed ideas in order to understand and discuss the ways of education in contemporary art.
